I've been thinking about this for a while... I think that it ought to be possible using B::Deparse.
According to the doc:
use B::Deparse;
$deparse = B::Deparse->new("-p", "-sC");
$body = $deparse->coderef2text(\&func);
eval "sub func $body"; # the inverse operation
So it should be possible to store the coderef as text along with something to indicate that it's a coderef (and it's name, if it has one). On thaw it would simply eval it.
Note that you can probably already do this without touching Storable. IIRC, before freeze()/thaw()ing Storable will try to call STORABLE_{freeze,thaw} in your namespace. You can use that as a filter mechanism.

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
